new logo

can we please change the logo/gif on top of the site? Looks like image rendered on netscape circa late 90s (maybe its the blue that gives it retro vibe)

Site is coming along great; not a fan of the logo either… Do I smell a design contest 😉

I like this - go with it!!
-
Nice! Much easier to read and classy!
-
Not a fan of the color scheme but otherwise thumbs up
-
I second the comment. Nice logo, and maybe even better with different colors.

I like this new logo better than the previous one.
I would change the brown color, though. To me it’s a bit too yellowish-brown, and reminds me of diaper-poo.
[To be frank, but you want us to be frank… I think?
]I guess you are trying to represent a brown men’s leather wallet, so I can see why brown was chosen.
If you need to have an image of a men’s wallet in the site-name logo…
(I would actually vote not to have the wallet in the logo, myself),
I’d make it a much darker brown.Or you could make it black, but then it might look even less like a wallet than it does now.
(I don’t think you even need the picture of a wallet there, however.)And I would definitely make the colors of “Phat” and “Wallet” the same.
Green as the logo color is fine, green stands for money (for US paper money, anyway).
The word Wallet is current a nice green color, but I’m not sure that this color is quite the green of US bills, so if you wanted to approximate the color of US bills, you might alter the green.
I expect that you were trying not to use the Fatwallet limey-green, to differentiate your logo.
The font to me is a bit old-fashioned, sort of like from the magazines TigerBeat and TeenBeat in 1979 – the headline of “Interview with David Cassidy!” would be in that font.
Maybe it’s so old-fashioned that it’s modern, the way you youngin’s in Hoxton and Brooklyn like massive beards and Victorian bicycles and that type of thing.I’d pick quite a streamlined, futuristic font, that gave off the vibes of “Now. Modern. Intelligent. Efficient. Lifestyles of the Rich, Modest, and Smart.”
I am not sure if you have a separate thread about the forum name, but I am not hot on the name “Phat”.
It seems quite dated – when I see it, all I think of is that former model who was once married to a music mogul who had that tv show, the “Baby Phat” designer woman.I also am not sure that this play on the spelling of “fat” would help anyone who was searching for Fatwallet in a search engine… I would not in a million years think, “I see that Fatwallet.com is dead, so why don’t I type in ‘Phatwallet’ and see what comes up.”

Like the new logo, thumbs up.

Black wallet - red color “phat”

@FrugalFreak is it a lot of work to make this design of logos with all different colors?
it also looks different with different color background so great if we can try each for a day and vote?
too much work?
i think the design is great

i think the design is greatI can make them, but you need to ask admin about changing daily . @dangeRuss

@frugalfreak that was my opinion/idea
wait to see what everybody thinks
and it doesn’t have to be daily
whatever works

Is “phat” set in stone? I mean, I know it was a scramble to get this site up and MUCH appreciated… but the name is ehh IMO
-
@sarahb there was a thread to submit alt name by pm/chat
so i guess there will be change
-
what are some good domain names that aren’t taken? Make sure you check that the name gets a not found page when typing in URL bar.
-
@frugalfreak but submission is closed. thought it was done
-
it is, was just curious what could come up with
-
no name has been chosen, so if a name had a wow factor, might would still be picked
-
Were there some good suggestions? Maybe we could put out a poll for a vote
-
@frugalfreak i like that “wow factor”
-
there were a couple I saw, couple good ones I suggested, but we need something that is short, top level .com and is easily remembered and tells exactly what we are.
